Chapter 57: Refugees
Ling'er and all the soldiers lost color together, and they couldn't bear to look at it anymore!
Turning his head, he asked Evil Tianquan, "Aren't these people suffering from some kind of plague?"
"I see that those people have cyan claw marks on their foreheads, could it be that they have been poisoned by corpses?" said Evil Tianquan.
"Is there still salvation?" Ling'er hurriedly asked.
Evil Tianquan groaned slightly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "Maybe there is a medicine that can cure it!" β
"What kind of medicine, junior brother quickly?" Ling'er asked eagerly.
"The name of this medicine is 'Futu Sansheng', but the material of this medicine is complicated, so I am afraid that it will ...... I'm afraid that it will be difficult to get it together for a while!" said Evil Tianquan with a frown.
"As long as you can save people, no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it! You quickly say that you need those medicinal herbs?" Ling'er said firmly.
"Black horn Shen half a tael, cloves one penny, wax tea powder money, musk one word, fixed powder one rice grain, white honey one penny, thatch incense one tael five coins, fine spice one tael no money, zero edge incense one cent three coins, Sichuan pepper two two five coins, lotus incense one cent six cents........." Evil Tianquan said a lot in a row, and Ling'er's head was big when he heard it.
Ling'er waved her hand and said with a smile: "Senior brother doesn't need to say it, these things are senior brother's strengths, let's take someone to accompany you to get it, right?"
Evil Tianquan said helplessly: "Help people to the end, junior brother will go on a trip, and the deputy general will leave you by your side to attack the city!"
The red sun gradually falls into the cloud shadow of the West Mountain, the slanting sun shines, the sunset gradually blooms, the condensation changes, the mountains and mountains are all around, the whole cage is covered with a layer of bewitching Xiajuan, purple and red are colorful, and the clouds are steaming and the clouds are steaming.
Ling'er and Buhedong arranged for the soldiers to set up camp on the grassland five hundred miles away from the city, bury the pot to make rice, and after a while, smoke rose around the tent.
During this period, the city gate was opened several times, dozens of corpses and hundreds of village names were escorted out one after another, and more and more refugees outside the city were born, and the sound of moaning and crying was endless.
When they saw the smoke rising not far away, they all rushed over.
Bu Hedong asked Ling'er and said, "Hu joins the army, will we take in or drive away these refugees?"
"Take them in, set them up in tents alone, and give them some clothes and dry food. Ling'er said.
"But if there are really sick people among these refugees, and we have to take care of them together with them, won't we all be in danger? Bu Hedong said worriedly.
Ling'er said with a smile: "The danger is indeed dangerous, but you can't see death without help, this spreads, and Xiang Jun's reputation is not good, just do as I say." β
"Hu joins the army, we know that we have always traveled lightly when marching and fighting, where can we find so many tents at one time, and there is not much food and grass!"
"Isn't there a forest around here? Deputy General Bu can take his men and refugees to cut down some trees and build tents. When we take the city, we will naturally have food and grass. Ling'er said neatly.
The lieutenant general immediately assigned his men to lead the refugees to cut down trees and build scaffolds.
Although the sun is setting, the heat is still unstoppable after a day of exposure to the soil.
The deputy general led everyone to endure the scorching heat and cut down, knowing that this place has not been mined by humans for hundreds of years, not to mention the trees, even the wild vines are thick in stems and thick skins, and it is extremely difficult to cut the valves. The sergeants and refugees were exhausted by this time, so they had to pick up some of the remaining broken wood and grass, and spread some simple straw bunks under the big trees nearby, so that the old and weak women and children could live in the wooden buildings, and the strong men could live in the straw bunks.
Finally arranged, Bu Hedong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The refugees were very grateful, and an emaciated and injured old man limped to him and knelt down and said, "Thank you for your life-saving grace, without the help of adults, we would have died without a place to be buried." β
Bu Hedong hurriedly helped him up and said: "Old man, please get up, don't thank me, if you want to thank us, thank us for joining the army, I just acted as ordered." β
The thin old man said: "Then Master Lao will take me to meet the army and thank me in person." β
Buhedong helped the old man to come to Ling'er's account, and the old man respectfully kowtowed to Ling'er to thank him.
Ling'er smiled and said, "The old man doesn't have to be polite, why were you kicked out of the city?"
The old man's throat moved, and he coughed violently, and after coughing for a while, he eased up, and said slowly: " In the past two months, Fengcheng was attacked by Liu Bangjun, the county commander Gao Xiang and his wife led the people of the city to resist desperately, there were countless dead and wounded in the city, Gao ordered people to dig some deep pits in the city and bury the dead, but more and more people died in the battle, countless corpses filled up layer after layer of pits, the families of the deceased were infected with a strange disease for some reason, this strange disease was very urgent, the infected people were soon afraid of light, afraid of water, mental disorders, vicious and bloodthirsty, there was no cure at all, what was more terrible was that after a few hours, they did not recognize their relatives and bitten people when they saw themγ And if you are bitten, you will become infected immediately. In desperation, Master Gao had to order all the infected people to be dug and buried to prevent the disease from spreading, and our patients' families were also expelled from the city. β
Ling'er frowned and said: "Although this disease is dangerous, it is not impossible to restrain it, once it is infected, it will be burned and buried, and those of you who are not sick will also be expelled, it is too cruel!"
The old man sighed helplessly: "We can't help it, the enemy is current, and the tall man can't take care of so much." β
Ling'er asked again: "Old man, do you know why Gao Xiang is desperate to the death?"
The old man's voice sank and said: "The relationship between this city is not shallow, it is the barrier in Guanzhong, the tall man has superb spells, and he is a candidate for the first emperor's Qin faction, and the walls of Fengcheng are towering in all directions, and the bows and arrows in the city are abundant, easy to defend and difficult to attack, how can Liu Bangjun be easily defeated." β
Ling'er immediately understood why Brother Zhang persuaded Liu Bang to find General Xiang to borrow troops to take Fengcheng, and it was really the right place to take it.
Her eyes flickered, and the plan to descend the city was already in her heart.
Ling'er said: "Old man, don't worry, we have sent someone to get the elixir for the treatment of the patient, and your relatives will be cured in the near future." β
The old man's eyes suddenly brightened, and he exclaimed, "Hu Senjun really has an elixir to save everyone?"
Ling'er said calmly: "There is no lie! But the old man needs to bring a few young adults to inform Master Gao, as long as he is willing to surrender to Liu Bangjun, we will help him rescue the strange disease." β
Two ecstatic lights flashed in the old man's eyes, and he said excitedly: "I will immediately go and tell everyone the good news, the old man is desperate to persuade Master Gao to surrender." I hope that Master Hu will do what he says. β
Ling'er whispered a few more words in the old man's ear, and the old man couldn't help but nod his head after hearing it, and his heart was infinitely happy.
The old man immediately got up and ran to the refugees, and everyone was very excited when they heard this, and they rushed to Fengcheng with the old man.
The gates were shut.
Under the city wall, the crowd was crowded and excited.
The old man shouted excitedly: "Yes, there is help, we want to see Lord Gao, please protect Lord Gao and tell Lord Gao, let him come out to meet us!"
"Let the tall man come out to meet us!" the crowd shouted in unison.
"Stop!" shouted the soldiers on the ramparts, rows of bows and arrows on the walls.
"We want to see Lord Gao, let him come out to see us, the strange disease is cured, we want to meet Lord Gao!"
